Description

Elon Musk’s mother, Maye Musk, is facing criticism after suggesting that people should have children regardless of whether or not they can afford them. On Sunday, December 15, the billionaire’s mother appeared on Fox and Friends with Rachel Campos-Duffy, where she was asked about her response on X (formerly Twitter) last month to a comedian who claimed that it was too expensive to have children. In her post, Musk argued that if certain expenses such as going out to eat were eliminated it was possible to still start a family. Ms. Musk seemed to suggest that affording children was as simple as giving up extras like going out to eat or seeing movies at the theater. Jimmy discusses the myriad financial challenges facing young couples pondering the possibility of children, in particular how inflation has driven up the cost of child care.

Main reasons for average person struggling to afford to live: 1. Cost of housing (rent or buying) 2. Taxes (we are getting robbed by Gov while the quality of life is getting worse) 3. Health care (even if you do have a partner to have kids with; cost of just giving birth in hospital is around $20k +) 4. All around quality of what you pay for is so low; its death by a thousand cuts.
